(Under water) to avoid GW. He never had a problem with misfire, rusty or wet ammo.I found ammo, in the closet, at Papa's house, that had been there 40 years. House had a swamp cooler, in the living room, (when occupied), but it done nothing for bedroom closet. All ammo was good.I lived on the coast, south of Houston, for 25 years. Open 5 gal buckets of shotgun hulls awaiting reload, were in the garage. Horrible climate, high humidity year round. Occasionally,  I would come across a hull with rusty brass. Most were tarnished, but very usable. I store under the bed. What Wif don't see, I don't get in trouble. What isnt in origanal cardboard cases, the cheap, plastic ammo cans or any container work just fine, under the bed. Even the bulk of my reloads are in factory cartons, for quick identification and easy storage.A SECURE shed should be fine.</blockquote>
